Although MC-104900 was fixed, skeletons, illusioners, and piglins with crossbows don't strafe when on certain blocks. Instead, they will move straight towards the player, regardless of how close the player is.

How exactly does this ticket compare to MC-157645?

Since the movement part of MC-157645 was fixed, this leaves the pathfinding issues. The pathfinding issue in MC-157645 seems to be the same as in this ticket, but does not directly describe that certain mobs move straight towards you instead of strafing. If MC-157645 is not considered fixed, and instead the same as this ticket, I think that MC-157645 should be resolved to MC-174500, because MC-174500 is based on MC-104900, which adressed the incorrect pathfinding, contained more (specific) information, and was created first.
